Civil Rights Speaker Series

Supplementing the Dallas College Civil Rights Tour, we have the Civil Rights Speaker Series. As part of our college's celebration of Black History Month and Women's History Month, the series occurs in February and early March.

The series typically includes three to five speaker seminars, including guest speakers, faculty lectures and presentations about civil rights. Attendees will learn more about the U.S. civil rights and women's rights movements, listen to stories from social justice warriors and hear more about our Civil Rights Tour.
